You can see all about the Alliance from our web site "www.doveralliance.org.uk"
Basically we are a Dover group that believe that Town councillors should vote for themselves not under a Party whip. We also believe that National politics has no place in the Town Council but recognise that unless there is group support it is difficult for any individual to stand thus would happily invite anyone to join us for the next election in May who cares about Dover first.
I would be pleased to discuss it with you at any time. Our candidate Georgette also lives in the ward that she is standing for and has been heavily involved in Dover about which she is devoted.
I will not get involved in party banter here, as before, others put their own interpretation on comments and then claim that they do not understand our very simple philosophy. Politics has done more damage to Dover than anything else. It can also be said that all the current Alliance councillors live or work in the areas they represent.
I am a Dovorian who has dedicated himself to acting rather than whingeing - may not always right but try to do my best - I am an Alliance member and am always available.. The website says it all. We have stood in all Town elections since 2003 at which time we had 49% of the cast votes gaining only 6 seats but have had a significant effect on the DTC. The castle Ward in which we are standing now was Alliance in 2003 until we let the Conservatives in unopposed in the subsequent election.

09:1181260I am in alot of groups within the town and on about 6 committees ,most have aske me not to talk about them when I am out and about with the Election,because they have members from all partys,I do understand that so I will not be talking about them till after the Election,but as most of you know I was on the Town council four years,and did work and even ended up a chairman,when I first started out I was in the Alliance,and must say from the day I left them I have not had much luck at the polls,but I still feel I have a part to play within the Town and the port,that is why I am standing again.I have said many times before "Vote for the person" You all know how I feel about Dover and you know if I get a seat I will do my best for the ward and the Town. Going on to the parish one now,As you know I live just around the cornner from Lydden &Temple Ewell,I have also been a parish cllr to but I was working then and could not put the time in that was needed ,but for the time i was on it I did work hard at it.At this time I have nomore to say ,but please aske away if you wish to know more. Thank you.
